About Our Honey

It is said that the 60,000 or so bees in a beehive may travel as much as 55,000 miles and visit more than two million flowers to gather enough nectar to make just one pound
of honey!

Nature's Energy Booster

The benefits of honey go beyond its great taste. A great natural source of carbohydrates which provide strength and
energy to our bodies, honey is known for its effectiveness in instantly boosting the performance, endurance and reduce muscle fatigue of athletes. Its natural sugars play an important role in
preventing fatigue during exercise. The glucose in honey is absorbed by the body quickly and gives an immediate energy boost, while the fructose is absorbed more slowly providing sustained energy. It
is known that honey has also been found to keep levels of blood sugar fairly constant compared to other types of sugar.

Combat Allergies

Raw, local honey contains bits and pieces of bee pollen, propolis and even beeswax. The reason you have an allergy to a
particular plant, tree or grass is because you’ve been overexposed to it at some point. Our immune system either under or over-reacts to invaders, harmless or not. Your overexposure to this pollen
developed into an over-reaction and now your immune system regards this pollen as an invader.

Honey has very strong immune modulating (balancing) properties. One
study in the International Archives of Allergy and Immunology found that patients reported 60% less allergy symptoms and 70% fewer days with severe symptoms while consuming a local honey over a five
month period. It seems exposing yourself to tiny amounts of pollen that you are allergic to through honey, your immune system becomes less sensitive to the allergen.

Honey Remedy for Ailments

For Cuts and Burns:

For thousands of years, honey has been recognized as one of the most natural home remedies to treat a wide range of
ailments and complaints including yeast infection , athlete foot and arthritis pain. Its antiseptic properties inhibit the growth of certain bacteria and helps keep external wounds clean and free
from infection.

Honey has been used as a natural cure in first aid treatment for wounds, burns and cuts as it is able to absorb
moisture from the air and promote healing. Its antibacterial properties prevent infection and functions as an anti-inflammatory agent, reducing both swelling and pain, and even scarring.

15ml of liquid honey with 80ml of orange juice and 70ml of natural yogurt. Blend them
together until smooth.

One of the better known health benefits of honey is that it is able to help treat sore throats. Thanks to its
antimicrobial properties, honey not only soothes throats but can also kill certain bacterium that causes the infection. Professional singers commonly use honey to soothe their throats

tablespoons of honey, four tablespoons of lemon juice and a pinch of salt.
